Contrary to conventional wisdom, this goal would appear to be easily within the Kremlin's grasp, but the cost to the Russian people and global security would be immense. Hence, Steven Rosefielde proposes a sophisticated strategy to dissuade President Vladimir Putin from pursuing the destabilizing course. His analysis conflicts with the post-cold-war image of the Soviet Union as a westernizing, mass consumption society committed to \"peaceful coexistence.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51939421159712,"sku":"NEW0521545293","price":31.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/russia-in-the-21st-century-the-prodigal-superpower-0521545293","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
